## Description

Gelest Inc. Their flagship product, BIOSAFE, is a silane-quat antimicrobial that imparts bacteriostatic, fungistatic, and algistatic properties to coatings and resins for manufactured goods. With over 35 years of experience, Gelest has developed BIOSAFE to provide high antimicrobial performance in ISO and ASTM testing. As a powder, solvent, or aqueous solution, BIOSAFE can be easily integrated into various applications. It creates a durable, leach-resistant, and non-migrating surface that prevents the growth of odor-causing bacteria, fungi, and algae. Unlike conventional antimicrobial agents, BIOSAFE's technology works by molecularly bonding to the product's surface. This disrupts the cell membrane of microorganisms on contact, leading to their destruction without promoting the development of drug-resistant superbugs. Where silver and triclosan-based antimicrobials have their disadvantages, BIOSAFE offers unique advantages. It is derived from organo-functional silanes and can covalently bond to substrates, preventing leaching. Additionally, BIOSAFE does not display any color change, ensuring its suitability for a wide range of applications. Gelest Inc.
